Support the Ones Who Support Us

Alpha Sigma Alpha, Delta Chi Chapter at Bloomsburg University, with the help of our friends Chi Sigma Rho, have organized a fundraiser in support of our troops. Our mission is to send “care packages” to deployed military service members. We would like to make each “care package” special. Receiving a care package in the mail can be a real morale booster for a deployed service member. It gives them hope and encouragement to return home safety to their loved ones and families. I started this fundraiser after having to experience the deployment of my father and now friends. I wanted to do something that could show the service members how much we truly are thankful for what they are doing overseas. With the help of her Sisters and friend they were able to make that happen. Raise so far over $500 and collecting all types of supplies to mail over.
